While off topic, I find that Villagers continually beat a dead horse on certain subjects (such as dog walking and dog poop) and delight in changing the meaning of what a person says. Most of these old farts have too much time on their hands and need to create some constructive things to do other than bitching and moaning about dog poop.

The problem is inconsiderate pet owners who need to be confronted when someone sees "it" happening instead of crucifying the world.
I agree with you, Bonanza, and I also believe that certain posters on this forum bring the dog thing up either to keep stirring up the pot or to blast, passively aggressively, those of us dog owners whom they don't like for one reason or another. So they decide to get at us through our sweet puppies.

No worries... I'm currently sitting at a dog friendly beach hotel with dog on bar deck. Lots of scratchy-scratches being given to himself by strangers. In real life outside TOTV, dogs are loved. Actually, outside of the forum, my dog is loved.
